Clear and well rounded face shield
Snaps firmly into place. it is clear and the curvature is aesthetically pleasing as well as great for shedding airflow.

Great face shield.
Fits my 3/4 helmet perfectly. They fit even when I am wearing my glasses. Easy snap-on and off. I use it whenever I travel on the freeway especially at higher speeds. Makes the ride more comfortable.

a face shield. for your face.
so it turns out that she was the president's cousin's ex-wife's niece! So you can imagine what happened...
wait. Let me start at the beginning...
As the Earth began to cool, lightning struck the primordial soup which provided a catalyst for increasingly more complex protein chains to form, eventually giving rise to what we know as life.
wait. too far back.
Are you really reading a review for a face shield? If you have the matching helmet - it works. You snap it on to your helmet, and things like wind, rain and flying insects will hit the shield instead of your face. I know right? It's like a REVOLUTION!
One big selling point: the faded pink tint. We ride bikes because it makes us happy, friends. This shield will enable you to ride while LITERALLY viewing the world through a rose-colored lens. KA-POW!!
It's a face shield. Buy it.

Worth the $20
I like the fade, its not too dark for night time use. Its a bit loud on the highway,and if you turn your head wind can pull the shield up on the snaps, not a big deal. Ultimately, it adds some versatility to my 3/4 helmet for a minimal price.

Good value and style
Looks great on my custom Bell 500. It's not a full shield, so wind does get in and can be loud. Good bug protection.

Add on for Bell 500 Helmet
This was a great additional purchase to my Bell Custom 500 Helmet, comes with 3 snaps however I can only seem to get 2 of the 3 snaps on the helmet, although despite that it still stays in place. Very comfortable to wear, wide view of my surroundings.

This shield works well.
This shield fits well on the Bell 500, looks great, and is sturdy.
Depending on your orientation to the wind, it will allow
some air in from the sides during windy conditions.
I found I needed to shift my head to prevent a wind blast into the eyes.
With that said, I do like the light air flow it provides in warm
weather, especially in town at low speed.
On the highway, it works well with no turbulence between
the shield and your face. Overall, it is a nice option to wearing goggles.

Would buy again for sure!
Purchased two of these (smoke and clear) for my Bell Custom 500 RSD. Snapped on tight and they hold snug. I wear glasses so the small amount of tilt is nice for on and off and for warm days to get air flow.

Robert Z: My go to choice when unexpected rain hits and I still have to get somewhere. My last one lasted about 2 years, and seemed to rust to the buttons on my rock hard 3/4's lid. Worth the money and fits perfectly on top a duffel.Jul 19, 2014

Pat D asked:Hi Zilla nation, I'm using the clear retro 3 snap shield but was thinking about getting the smoked one as well since riding with the sun in my eyes is getting annoying and as you know it is pretty annoying to get sun glasses in and out with this retro shield on.

My question, is the amber gradient shield made to keep the sun out of your eyes during the day and also be clear enough at night? I have a gloss black bell custom 500 but I would still get the amber shield if it can save me from bringing around two shields every day.

Also is the smoked shield light enough so that you can use it at night as well?

michael p:I have the Gringo, and I'm pretty sure the buttons are the same as the Bonanza. I ordered this shield before I read the Q&A, but when I got the shield, much to my surprise, it fit! I had to move the snaps all the way out, and it just fit. It's tight, but all three buttons snapped on. I took the bike out for a ride, and had no problems.

On a side note, for those Gringo owners, the middle snap is adjustable vertically, which means you can move the shield up just enough to help with fogging issues.Mar 13, 2014

MARK B:Their black on the amber gradient after checking mine. I've had two of these after loosing one on the freeway at high speed when high cross winds ripped it off! The shield offers some titling away from your chin when fitted which allows easier breathing which can then be pulled down closer to the face when underway. Make sure the press studs are tight and I'd recommend adjusting their internal wire clamps in the female housing or thickening up the helmet stud say with PTF tape as an idea. Good luck.Mark BakerJul 20, 2014
